7.2 Block Naming

In an effort to standardize our naming structures, the webteam is using the below conventions when naming blocks in sites. If we can get all editors to do the same, it will make maintaining and editing all of our sites a bit easier.

Also, please be sure to double check your naming structure to ensure there are no spaces in between any words or dashes. Any space in the name will disrupt the functionality of your block.

Correct: emb-form-fall-signup
